My superpower is I always have good sleeps.
Eagle@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Here too… Must’ve been something in the atmosphere.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Why was it so stuffy? I woke up at about 1am and couldn’t sleep. Checked the weather and it was 18 degrees. Felt like 30. Maybe I should’ve opened the window
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Saw a Tawny Frogmouth on the dog walk this morning. First one I’ve seen in my area.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
awesome , they are so cool
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I startled it in my neighbours pear trees. It flew into a gum and tried the If I’m very still I’m invisibile trick.
LowExperience2368@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Attempt was made. The recipe said to simmer the tomato base for five minutes and it should be ready for the eggs, but because I used crushed tomatoes, it took longer. Will report back after taste test. I'm just glad I actually made something, even if the capsicum wasn't julienned.

mmmmmshakshukaaa
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
That looks fantastic
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Would totally smash that
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
that looks delicious
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Shakshouka? Good choice. I’d have it with bread, hommus and yoghurt. I put hommus on most things though.
Eagle@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
That looks so good, and I’m sure it tastes amazing!
Alamutjones@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
The forecast is for a pleasantly relaxed work day. Nice
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Boyo has a Zoom interview shortly and is not amenable to the suggestion he change out of a t-shirt for a sex toy shop. Hopefully coffee will kick some sense into this.
MeanElevator@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Is the interview at sex toy company?
If not, that is definitely a choice.
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
It was not. He has also now Glassdoor’d them and neclared NOPE so Nevermind
tone212_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Meeting with the place I do contract work for just finished. I asked for a bigger fee % for most types of projects I handle for them, plus now was the time to go for it with their resource shortages. I was pretty nervous, but prepared and I made my case. Now I want to hear what they say. If they say no, then I’ll just pick up less of their work and they can deal with the shortfall of their resources themselves. It’s not going to become my problem when they don’t incentivise me.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I hope it works out. For what it’s worth, I think you did the right thing.

My sewing machine is possessed. It’s running without the foot pedal connected!
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
🤔
Can the poltergeist be taught to follow a pattern?
Catfish@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I have rum, dried mint, and tarot cards available. Think they might help?
It works perfectly except having to stop/start with the power switch all of a sudden. Bloody bizarre.

I’m going to have to get a physio -_-
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
the beach calls but I have a headache
maybe wait until the panadol kicks in
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
For a while I’ve felt like I’d rather fuck around with plugging my laptop into the TV and dealing with the audio issues that can crop up than ever turn on a console.
This was reinforced a while ago when my girlfriend broke out her old disney infinity stuff for the kids. She had to sign in to her PlayStation account just to play local coop, which then forced a bunch of system and game updates. Truly a terrible experience.
Aside from the audio devices being annoying, the laptop needs to fully turn on before it will detect any other audio devices, Bazzite has Just Worked and I’ve been really enjoying it
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
remember when a person didn’t have to have an account to play a game, they just put the disc or cartridge in and played
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I regret getting rid of my ps2
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
These days you can buy a game and it doesn’t even come with a disc. Or it might, but it’s just the licence for the game and you still need internet to actually download it.
SaneMartigan@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Yeah, I’m about to put bazzite on my last one of those Dell sff’s for a console like box. The co-op games I want to play are on steam and run off line. I’ve been running bazzite on my main pc for a while now and it’s great. Whenever I have to give mum it support for win11, I’m glad to not be using it. Heating about Old Gatesey and his Epstein rash further reinforces my decision.
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m thinking of switching my big PC over from Mint to Bazzite. I just haven’t been happy with Mint’s performance on some games, but the laptop has worked well.
I also like the extra WINE options I get between Lutris, Heroic, the WINE GUI launcher, and a few others. I’ve spent some time on MyAbandonWare and I’ve been able to get some of the oldest and most unsupported games working on there

Goreamn aramex. Offically "onboard for delivery " for a week
why do people use these cunts
tombruzzo@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Convinced the team to go to a nice winery for a tour and lunch because why not? There is every possibility we could actually do something there so you could say it’s justified. They were impressed at the very least
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
very nice 🙂
tone212_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m watching curling. I have no idea what’s going on.
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
packing continues
we were all too tired to cook so we have fish and chips, I’ll cook tomorrow
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Melbcat is still resting a lot and a bit off her food. I wonder if it’s nausea, the heat or the stress of another cat about. She’s taken to lounging at the door and crying to go out, probably hoping to punch on.
I took some wet food out to the black cat with nutritional yeast on top for a vitamin boost and to encourage him to eat. He reluctantly licked it once then walked away giving his tail a single flick. Bro, you’re so malnourished you’re getting bald spots. Eat. It could be he prefers dry food or needs a stinkier food to smell it properly.
Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
If it makes you feel better the strays will turn their noses up at certain wet food because it’s not their favourite brand.
Cats…
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
I’m surprised at it because of how thin he is, and think maybe cat flu has dulled his appetite?
It’s the Smitten homebrand from Woolies in beef so maybe something in fish might work
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
aw, hugs and what a silly puss
maybe just give him plain food
melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
Yeah I got rid of it and put out the rest plain with some dry food

The rip off hearing aid people? Go to costco if you need them.

CT Scan came back clear, headache is still present though. Spent nearly 13 hours in bed, just sleeping on and off. Glad work has been very understanding!

melbaboutown@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
That’s no good. I really hope some cause can be found or something helps
Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 weeks ago
so many hugs
happy it came back clear, hope your headaches get better real soon
